Ambient lighting for your Ford: wireless, in 2 minutes

Give your Ford a soft, premium glow at night, without wiring or a dealer visit. Ford fits factory ambient lighting to some models and trims, sometimes as a subtle glow in a single colour, and not to others, so whether your car has it depends on model, year and equipment. If yours has none, or you want more colours and more zones, wireless RGB LED lights add it in about two minutes. View the wireless ambient lighting.

• No wiring, no modifications: nothing is connected to your Ford's electrics.
• 8 RGB colours and several lighting modes, switched with the included remote.
• USB-C rechargeable: every light has its own battery.
• Set of 2 or 4: light one zone, or the footwells and doors together.
• Fits virtually any Ford, whatever its model or age.

1. Does your Ford have factory ambient lighting?

What we could verify in Ford Netherlands price lists (equipment differs per country and model year):

• Focus: the October 2022 price list includes “Ambient lighting”, described as subtle LED interior lighting in Crystal Blue, as standard on the Titanium X and ST-Line X (extra equipment over the Titanium and ST-Line).
• Puma: the April 2021 price list includes “Ambient lighting” (LED interior lighting) as standard on the Titanium and ST-Line (extra equipment over the entry-level Connected version).
• Kuga: the price list for model year 2027 (prices from July 2026) includes “Ambient lighting” in Crystal Blue in the equipment of the entry-level Trend Business version.
• Electric Explorer: the March 2025 price list includes adjustable ambient lighting in the doors, dashboard and centre console as standard on the Explorer Premium, not on the Explorer or the Limited Edition. According to Ford's support pages, its colour can change with the selected drive mode.

Not sure what your Ford has? A Ford dealer can look up its factory equipment from the VIN. Where there is no factory lighting, or only one colour, wireless lights add 8 colours and a glow in places such as the footwells, the rear or around the centre console.

2. Where the lights look best in a Ford

• Footwells: under the dashboard edge, pointing at the floor. In the driver's footwell, fit the light high up, well away from the pedals.
• Door pockets: in or under the door pocket, so the light washes over the door trim.
• Centre console and cupholders: along the sides of the console or under the edge of the armrest, pointing down.
• Lower edge of the dashboard: low down and pointing down, so the light falls on the surface instead of towards you.

Rule of thumb: you should see the glow, not the light itself.

Where not to place them:

• Not on or near airbags: the steering wheel, the passenger side of the dashboard, the seat sides, and the doors and pillars where side and curtain airbags deploy. Your owner's manual shows where they are.
• Not in your line of sight: not on top of the dashboard, not next to the instrument cluster or the central display, and not where the light reflects in the windscreen or side windows.
• Not near the pedals, and make sure no light can come loose.

3. Fitting in 2 minutes

1. Charge: charge the lights via USB-C before first use.
2. Clean: wipe the spot with a damp cloth, remove grease with a little isopropyl alcohol or a mild interior cleaner, and let it dry completely.
3. Place: check the position and direction in the dark, then fix the light. On leather or Alcantara, try a hidden spot first.
4. Switch on: use the remote to switch the lights on and choose a colour and mode.

As with every order, you enter your Ford model and year in the order field. If in doubt, you can always send us a photo.

4. Questions from Ford drivers

• Set of 2 or 4 for my Ford? A set of 2 is enough for one zone, such as the front footwells or the centre console. A set of 4 adds the doors or the rear for an all-round look.
• How do I charge them? Via USB-C, the connector most current phones use. Charge them indoors or from a USB port in your Ford, only while parked.
• Will they drain my Ford's battery? No. Each light runs on its own rechargeable battery and is not connected to the car.
• Will they damage the interior? Nothing is drilled or cut and no trim comes off. Fit them on a clean, dry surface and try a hidden spot first on leather or Alcantara.
• Can I use them while driving? Keep it subtle: cabin light can reflect in the windscreen and affect your night vision. Set a calm, steady colour before you drive off and switch the lights off if they distract you. Rules differ per country, but interior light must never dazzle or distract the driver.
